Description
Amberstone Grange is a house dating from circa 1790. Originally three windows wide, it is now two storeys and has an attic. The facade is faced with black mathematical tiles, topped by a flipped tiled roof. In the 19th century, two large stuccoed bays were added to the ground and first floors. The original glazing bars are missing. A round-headed doorway is flanked by Doric pilasters and topped with a pediment and semi-circular fanlight, with a six-panel fielded door. A stuccoed porch was added in the 19th century. The house has three dormers. On 26 June 1814, the house was the site of a notable occasion when Samuel Rickman, the occupant at the time, entertained Tsar Alexander I of Russia and King Frederick William III of Prussia during their journey from Portsmouth to Dover, concluding their visit with the Prince Regent.
